"What was that?" He came closer and closer as I step back with each step he took.

"Lane 1: Elin Johnson!" The announcer announced.
"Lane 2: Mickeala Queen!" I crouched down and tied my shoes properly.
"Lane 3: Layla Abdullah!" I turned to where Latifa, Scarlett and Sabrina sat and threw a wink at them while smirking. Latifa and Scarlett screamed and danced a weird dance as Sabrinna looked embarrassed to be with which made me laugh.
"Lane 4: Alexa Maxwell!"

After a second I don't what happened but I didn't feel the light white band brushing against my stomach like I waited for. The girl in front of me was 0.89s faster. Faster than me.
